In the 2011 Census, 15% of the population of Charnwood stated they had a limiting long-term illness.

Due to this, we always consider the needs of people with disabilities when designing our services.

The services we provide are often of most need to particularly vulnerable people within the community so it is important that we get them right.

Council services for people with disabilities

We provide a number of important services for people with disabilities; please click links below for more information. In addition to these services, it is our policy to provide home visits when required.

Please contact the desired service directly.

Access to employment

As an employer, we have adopted the 'Disability Confident Scheme’ as a committed employer, to show our commitment to good practice in employing those with disabilities.

To find out more about what these commitments are and to learn more about the Access to Work Scheme please go to our Access to Employment page.
